The Experience
Before You Go
Bring reef-safe sunscreen
Protect your skin and nearby marine life by choosing reef-safe sunscreen and reapplying frequently in the sun.
Secure loose items
Keep phones and cameras on lanyards or in zip pouches when the yacht is moving to avoid drops overboard.
Timing for photos
Book the late-afternoon or golden hour slot for softer light and less harsh reflections on skyscraper glass.
Stay hydrated
Even on a short cruise, Dubai sun and wind can dehydrate—use the provided water and bring extras if you’re in a larger group.

The Arabian Gulf’s shallow reefs are sensitive—use reef-safe products, avoid throwing waste overboard, and follow crew guidance to minimize disturbance.
Dubai Marina and Palm Jumeirah are largely reclaimed and developed since the late 1990s and 2000s, representing Dubai’s rapid coastal expansion and tourism-focused engineering.
